If I were a US citizen I'd be a 1%'er - I find this amazing, I am nowhere near 'rich', just comfortable, and as long as I stay in employment, no money worries either. However, as I live in the UK, I just about make the top 10%, which isn't that impressive either: the 1%ers in the UK have personal wealth of ~£3m+

Conversely, the Global 1% value is only $700,000.

Being a 1%er is a highly relative term depending on where in the world you live, and I do not understand the fureur surrounding the issue.
